How to Reprogram the Ignition Key for an Oldsmobile Aurora

The Aurora is among the many Oldsmobile vehicles that feature electronic ignition-key capabilities. This technology allows you to program your chip key or transponder key to your car's engine. Once programmed, only these electronic keys can start your car's engine. You can program or reprogram your ignition key in just minutes from your vehicle with no previous experience, and have the technology ready for use immediately.

  • Insert the key that you would like to program into your car's ignition and turn the key to the "On" position.

  • Leave the key in the "On" position for 10 minutes and turn the key to the "Off" position once the security light in the car turns off.

  • Turn the key back to the "On" position, wait another 10 minutes and return the key to the "Off" position.

  • Turn the key to the "On" position for the third time, wait 10 minutes again and turn the key "Off."

  • Remove the key from the ignition and the reprogramming of the key will be completed and ready for use.
